All Restaurants in Parque Nacional Natural Tayrona

By Lorraine Caputo

Restaurants in Tayrona are all associated with lodging establishments and are expensive. A basic vegetable, rice, French fries plate costs $4.20 and a fish meal $7.40-10.50; a beer is $1.60-1.85 and water $2.10. Budget for this. Many backpackers and shoe-string travelers prefer to buy supplies in Santa Marta. If you choose to do this, please pack all your trash (especially bottles, cans and bags) back out to civilization —don't leave it in the park, where it contributes to the degradation of its ecosystem and endangers wildlife. Fresh water, which can be purified, is available.
